A wad of paper is dropped from a second-story balcony and falls through still air to the ground.
As it speeds up, what happens to the air resistance it encounters?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
the air resistance becomes greater
What happens to the net force acting on it?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
they are opposing each other
What happens to its acceleration?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
the acceleration increases
If it dropped from a much higher point, what would happen to the net force and the acceleration?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
it will continue to increase until the upward force of the air resistance balances the force of gravity and it will stop accelerating

Very good work. Let me know if you have questions.
